 L’Heure exquise (Verlaine) Reynaldo Hahn   (1874-1947)  The white moon shines n the forest, from every branch comes forth a voice, Under the foliage, Oh Beloved! The pond reflects, a deep mirror, the silhouette of the dark willow, Where the wind is weeping. Let us dream, this is the hour! A vast and tender calm seems to descend from the firmament, Which the orb clads in rainbow colors; This is the exquisite hour.   IV  O mio babbino caro (Forzano) Giacomo Puccini  From “Gianni Schicchi” 1858-1924)  O my dearest daddy, he pleases me and he is handsome. I want to go to Porta Rossa to buy the ring! Yes, yes, I wish to go there! And if I should love him in vain, I shall go to Ponte Vecchio And throw myself into the Arno! I struggle and I torment! O God, I would like to die! Daddy have pity, have pity!   V  Simple Gifts (Shaker Song) Aaron Copland   (1900-1990)   Sure on this Shining Night (Agee) Samuel Barber   (1910-1981)       This recital is presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Bachelor of Music in Music Performance.  Christina Infusino studies voice with Oral Moses.       Department of Music  presents    JUNIOR RECITAL  Christina Infusino, soprano  Marcina Kinney, piano         Saturday, December 8, 2007 5:00 pm Music Building Recital Hall    Thirty-second concert of the 2007-2008 seasonKennesaw State University Junior Recital Christina Infusino, soprano Marcina Kinney, piano  December 8, 2007 5:00 pm Music Building Recital Hall   PROGRAM  I  Let me wander not unseen (Jennes) George Frideric Handel   From “L’Allegro” (1685-1759)  V’adoro Pupile (Haym)  From “Giulio Cesare”  I adore you, eyes, missiles of love. Your spark is welcome to my breast. My sad heart desires you, who inspire pity. And whom it always calls its best beloved.   II  Heidenröslein (Goethe) Franz Schubert   (1797-1828)  Once a boy saw a little rose standing; little rose on the heath. It was so young, and lovely as morning. He ran quickly to look at it closely; He gazed upon it with joy, the little rose on the heath. The little boy spoke: I’ll trample you, little rose on the heath! The little rose spoke: I’ll prick you, that you eternally think of me and I will not suffer! Little rose on the heath. And the wild boy broke the little rose on the heath; The little rose defended itself and pricked, but grief and pain was of no avail; It had to suffer after all, little rose on the heath.  Seligkeit (Hölty)  Joys without number bloom in heaven’s hall for angels and transfigured ones, as our fathers taught. Oh, there should I like to be, and forever rejoice! Upon everyone smiles intimately a heavenly bride; Harp and Psalter sound, and one dances and sings. Oh, there should I like to be, and forever rejoice! Rather will I stay here, if Laura smiles upon me a glance which says that I’ve been freed from complaining. Blissful then with her will I remain forever here!  Lachen und Weinen (Rückert)   Laughter and Weeping, at whatever hour, Are based, in the case of love, on so many different reasons. Every morning I laughed for joy; and why I not weep In the evening’s glow is even to myself unknown. Weeping and laughter, at whatever hour, are based, In the case of love, on so many different reasons. Evenings I have wept for sorrow; and how can you wake up In the morning with laughter, must I ask you, oh heart.     III  Plaisir D’amour (Claris de Florian) Johann Paul Martini   (1741-1816)  The pleasure of love lasts but a moment, the sorrow of love lasts all life through. I have given up everything for the ungrateful Sylvia, She left me and took another lover. The pleasure of love lasts but a moment, the sorrow of love lasts all life through. As long as this water runs gently towards the brook that borders the meadow, I shall love you, Sylvia told me. The stream still flows, but she has changed. The pleasure of love lasts but a moment, the sorrow of love lasts all life through.
